"Dryland" event this weekend cancelled

We will not be holding our "Dryland" event this weekend.

We have too much snow for rigs and not enough snow for sleds. We have about 8 inches of fluffy snow that packs down to about an inch.

Rick and I and the Totten kids will be working on checking out the trails for deadfall from the summer and recent winds if you want to come out and help - let me know so we can work out a time to meet.

Looks like lots of snow in the forecast for Sunday/Monday and next week.

Happy Trails!

MiDD goes to MUSH at Camp Rotary Saturday

MiDD members will be hosting a training exercise and equipment show and tell this coming Saturday at Camp Rotary - sign up at 11 a.m., drivers' meeting at 12:30, start at 1 p.m. We will have several skill stations set up along a route at the Scout property for trying out new skills, honing old ones. Come and join the fun!

Tired of the warm weather....

Here's a photo from 7:30 a.m. this a.m. Missed the best shot, at the best time, of course...very red hue to everything as the day broke over the tree line.

Campground near Midwest Mushers Symposium

Found a campground near Curtis, MI., the site of the 2nd Annual Midwest Mushers Symposium - I'm planning on camping this year - rates are $21.00 for a site with electric only - looks like a nice place - check it out http://www.uplogcabin.com/

Sebastian Schnuelle is the headliner this year with a line up of experienced racers on board for some interesting topics/discussions.

I'm taking a tent - heading up Thursday night so I can also attend the Teachers Symposium on Friday.
